The Gurls Talk Podcast

Adwoa Aboah is a British-Ghanaian supermodel who founded Gurls Talk as a community platform before it became a podcast, and that origin story matters. The show isn't built around celebrity interviews for the sake of clicks. It's built around creating a safe space where women can talk about the hard stuff: addiction recovery, grief, neurodiversity, body image, identity, and finding your footing in a world that has a lot of opinions about who you should be. The guest list reads like a who's who of interesting women. Actress Denise Gough, supermodel Paloma Elsesser, politician Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. But the conversations don't feel like press tours. Adwoa has a gift for getting people to open up about their actual experiences rather than their rehearsed talking points. Her own openness about her mental health journey and recovery from addiction sets the tone for genuine exchange. At 88 episodes with a 4.9-star rating, the show prioritizes depth over volume. Episodes release weekly on Tuesdays and tend to run long enough to really sit with a topic. There's no rush to get through a list of questions. Conversations breathe and go where they need to go. The production is clean, the pacing is thoughtful, and the emphasis is always on emotional honesty over entertainment value. That said, the episodes are genuinely compelling listening. Adwoa brings real curiosity to every conversation, and her guests respond in kind. It's a show that makes you feel less alone with whatever you're carrying.
